Letter: Vote for the U.S. Constitution

Our founding fathers created the first free people to survive as a nation. They designed a model for the whole human race, giving citizens freedom, equality and justice. They put their lives on the line to create a nation free from tyranny and to create a nation ruled by law and not the whims of government.

The U.S. Constitution, coupled with the Bill of Rights, was not an accident, but had the hand of God all over it.

Freedom unleashed the human spirit to explore the secrets of the universe with a free enterprise culture. America represents about 5 percent of the world’s population, but has created more wealth than the rest of the world combined. Moreover, we have never suffered a severe famine, despite famines continuing to stalk the world.

America has easily outdistanced the world in extending the benefits of inventions and discoveries in such fields as medicine, housing, education, energy, transportation, space and agriculture. The U.S. is often the first responder to our fellow man after war and natural disasters.

America has been drifting the past four years, drowning in debt. Our constitution, once held in high esteem, is ignored or changed to meet the opinion of a judge. It should be considered a document for the ages, as are the Ten Commandments.

This election is about our constitution, and you can vote to make sure it is followed again. This will insure America will rebound and be prosperous again.
